Solihull, United Kingdom National Trust Full time

As a Gardener, you’ll be a hands-on member of the garden team, involved in every aspect of gardening at Baddesley Clinton. Responsible for day-to-day maintenance, and the highest standards of horticulture, you’ll also play a vital role in improving the experience of visitors to the garden and wider estate. 

You may be asked to work occasional weekends, bank holidays and evenings.  

You'll join a team of three Gardeners, over 30 dedicated volunteers, and our beloved garden cat. The team is a friendly and warm group with a diverse range of skills and knowledge, all  united by our passion for conserving and enhancing the beauty of our gardens.

Baddesley Clinton is a moated manor house within a rambling Warwickshire estate. The property offers an imaginative visitor experience, with trails, activities and outdoor games throughout the year. The busy barn restaurant serves a variety of dishes, with many ingredients grown in the property’s vegetable garden. Baddesley Clinton is part of a trio of properties alongside Packwood House and Coughton Court, so collaborative working between staff and volunteers is encouraged.

You'll be helping to keep the garden in tiptop condition every day. This might involve daily checks to make sure all areas are safe for people visiting, routine tasks such as weeding, pruning and mulching, and using machinery such as hedge cutters, leaf blowers, lawnmowers and tractors.  

Other duties might include propagation, cutting flowers for the house, preparing plants for sale and tree safety work. You may be involved in recycling and managing waste, along with the rest of the garden team. 

We'd love to hear from you if you’re: 

an enthusiastic horticulturist and hands-on gardener, who’s worked with hard landscaping before  knowledgeable about plants, with a great eye for detail experienced with machinery, including tractors, chainsaws, rotary and cylinder mowers, and with some knowledge of maintenance  a driver with a full licence   able to manage a demanding outdoor role   good at talking to, and getting on with, all kinds of people  equally confident working within a team, with volunteers or on your own  able to keep to time, plan and meet deadlines
